It is impossible for others to understand what we are going through which is why forums like these are so important for us. Keep posting and keep us posted as to what is going on in your world.

Congratulations for getting out of the cult and learning "TTATT" we may not be able to bring the bORG down, but we can sure slow down their growth

Letter to the local paper...again.

by tresdecu in

last year i wrote a letter to the religion writer at the local paper.

didn't get very far...but thought i'd do it again.

can't hurt, right.. here it is:.

I hope it get's past their mind numbed, newspaper media brains. Though maybe they know that nobody really cares and they're just filling paper with ink because hardly anyone reads the newspaper anymore. For that matter, hardly anyone cares about the Jehovah's Witnesses nor are they interested in what they are doing for their weekend summer vacation.

So what IS wrong with higher Education?

by LoisLane looking for Superman in

are the governing body, 8 pope-ettes, just jealous?.

what group of people doesn't want their finest minds to be educated?

(facepalm) .

ldrnomo

When people get educated, it is much harder to fool and control them.

Which is why I don't understand why they haven't founded there own institution of higher learning (JWU) or they could call it "Rutherford University"

that way they could control what people learn and still keep them in their control

by wha happened? in

i purchased a condo late last year and due to my personal schedule, i wasn't able to redo it to my preferance until a few months ago.

years ago, I took all of my boxes of old WT books and magazines to a KH nearby and stacked them in front of their door early one morning.

On top of the boxes I attached a large piece of paper with the scripture from Eccl "to the making of many books there is no end....."

Two To Five Year Faders, How Often Do Your JW Friends Who Promised To Die 4 U, Check Up on You?

by ÁrbolesdeArabia in

we all were told, even in these stupid songs we sang at the kingdom hall that our brothers would die for us because they loved us so much!

they had the love of jesus christ so deep, they would do anything to make sure we stayed aboard the patterson ark.. .

now i can't create a fancy time-line like the july 15, 2013 watchtower that shows all those cool pictures and charts.

ldrnomo

Never, never ever.

And we were pillers in the cong. I was an elder and PO, my wife was a support to those that had problems and I provided good jobs for some who would have had to struggle.

But I don't care and at this point in my life, would not want to see or get involved with any of them. I have moved on.

I'm quite familiar with Seattle, nice to see some shots of the city taken way back when.

What year was that taken?

I wonder what stadium it was held in.
